Hi! Elasticsearch cluster has 2 nodes. But when I start stress test using esrally, I found that one of them has more rejections than the other like this: node\_name name active queue rejected completed elasticsearch-logging-0 write 0 0 108266 70186 elasticsearch-logging-1 write 0 0 5662 70109 1. Each of them has 2 cores, but their bulk thread pool processor is 2. 2. My rally clients number is 200 and the bulk\_size is 100. 3. Each doc is about 900 bytes. 4. The error rate from esrally is 95%!!!!!!!! PLZ! Can anyone help me!!! ORZ!!! ---

I think may be I should add a coordinating only node to load banlance? But how to change elasticsearch config file when I use kubernetes to manage es cluster? ---
